Learn more about how we can prepare you to advance your career.

Are you interested in learning a trade but not sure you have the time to complete your education? The good news is that Tulsa Welding School (TWS) offers hybrid training programs to learn a trade in as little as 7 months. So, why are students choosing hybrid trade schools?

Why Students are Choosing Hybrid Trade Schools

There are many reasons why students choose hybrid trade schools. They include:

Hands-On Training

While some diploma programs can be completed strictly online, they are for careers in an office setting. You can attend a diploma program completely online if you want to become a medical billing specialist or bookkeeper. Trade programs are different because they have a hands-on component. Part of the trade program includes instructor-led training that uses industry-standard equipment on campus, that can be too expensive for a student to afford. To bridge the gap between a fully online program and an on-campus program is a hybrid trade program. It is the best of both worlds. You get to attend class online while using industry-standard equipment and getting guidance from your instructor to learn proper techniques and build confidence in your trade skills.

Shorter Commute

Tulsa Welding School offers on-campus options for both classroom lectures and hands-on training. However, you can sign up for the hybrid option to save time and money commuting to our trade school everyday. That way, you get hands-on training and in-person guidance from an instructor at the campus on lab days, but you can stay home and attend class in the comfort of your home.

Work At Your Own Pace

Since you are completing lectures virtually, you can set your own pace. You can also review online resources and learn when it fits your schedule. A hybrid trade school offers more flexibility in your educational learning.

Another way you can work at your own pace at TWS is by using virtual reality. Our welding program utilizes OcuWeld virtual welding software to give you tools on how to practice welding in a safe environment. You get to use what you learned in the lab to hone your skills at your own pace and receive instant feedback to build your confidence when it is time to start working as an apprentice.

Work & Attend Classes at The Same Time

A great benefit of attending a hybrid trade school is having time to work or raise a family while attending classes. TWS offers flexible class schedules. Welding classes are offered in the morning, afternoon, evening, weekend, and overnight. Depending on when you work, you can attend class online and complete hands-on training for the class schedule that best for you.

Another great benefit of attending TWS is that we help you find the a job after graduation. To become a certified welder, you will need to meet certain requirements and take welding tests. These vary by company. Let us teach you a wide variety of welding techniques that you can use when you start working in the industry.
